-All 48V Multis and Quattros. And always a [[venus-os:start|Venus-device]] is necessary in the system, since that has the canbus port which is used for the (required!) communication between the ESS battery and the Victron system.

-==== 2. Venus-device needed ====
+==== 2. GX device needed ====
-To use the BMZ ESS in Victron system, it is necessary to use a Color Control GX or Venus GX. On first commissioning an external power supply (Not the 48V from the BMZ-Battery) is needed. The CCGX/VGX sends a keep alive signal to the BMZ ESS via canbus. This will only be send once the canbus baud rate is changed (see 5. [[venus-os:start|Venus-device]] Configuration). Without it, the battery will have a communication fault and shut down after 10sec.

 ==== 3. Wiring of communication cables ====
-Use the //VE.Can to CAN-bus BMS type B Cable//, part number ASS030720018. Plug the side which is labeled Battery BMS into the BMZ BMS. Plug the side labeled Victron VE.Can into the [[venus-os:start|Venus-device]].

-Then, plug a [[https://www.victronenergy.com/accessories/ve-can-rj45-terminator|VE.Can terminator]] in the other VE.Can socket on the [[venus-os:start|Venus-device]]. Two VE.Can terminators are included with the package of the CCGX as an accessory, only one is used. Keep the other one as a spare.

 More information about the cable can be found in [[battery_compatibility:can-bus_bms-cable|its manual]].
-Without properly connecting this cable, the battery will stop charging/discharging after several minutes. Also, the battery will not show up on the display of the [[venus-os:start|Venus-device]].
